Filter the usernsme on your side.
No specific feature, and since its encoded you can't reasonably change the software. Like @mikho mentioned, filter it before sending it out to from your module, that would be the best way.
well, I got a programmer to do this module, but I can not contact him now....
if I can't forbid users to put spaces in WHMCS, I losed my money
As @Jar said: WHMCS is encoded. You have to filter it in your module, unless that also is encoded.
yep you are right, it's also encoded...

I think templates are not encoded?
You can code whmcs hook for clientadd and clientedit. Only choice to do it in whmcs. Either remove the space there or filter the spaces.
thanks then, I will get another programmer to do this function for me(facepalm)
You can code your own registration through the WHMCS api...
the method of @mikho seems simpler and I would get a cheaper programmer then...
Simply put a big warning on your registration / user details change pages - "PLEASE DO NOT PUT SPACES IN YOUR FIRST NAME, THIS WILL MAKE YOUR SERVICE UNUSABLE".
If they still choose to put spaces, well...
What about people who actually have spaces in their first name? The world cultures/languages are so diverse, you can't assume anything about names.
I've never seen spaces in a first name. What would that look like?
People from some countries like Spain and Mexico have many names. So they write several names in each filed, with spaces i between.
Thats why the best way is to implement the filter in the username creation instead of editing a clients details.
I did a similar thing for my VestaCP module when someone signed up using firstname and middlename.
I updated the module to only use the firstname and lastname instead of trying to use the full name (first-, middle- and lastname).
the important part is to keep the clients details as the client wrote them when signing up or if he/she edits them.
I got two names as well. In any legal place I write both. Sometimes I write the one I usually don't use like M. And continue the second name.
Firstname & Lastname system != Two names system
How is it simpler? His method is using whmcs api too...
but it's the same thing... i just didn't see his post when i posted.
I'm well aware of that, but the second name is not the first name. Perhaps you mean "given name"? That's usually how the first, second, etc., names are distinguished from the family, (sometimes called last), name. A person's second name is not the same as their last name. Sorry to be pedantic, but there is only one first name.
In most forms, it is.
Fix your VNC integration
That... not really a good solution to implement a hack like that.
If you want/need a unique ID / username for a client use the WHMCS clientid along with some static text. Ex. MVPSUser43 for clientid 43.
I can help you with that
, please get back to me on skype.
I think it may be simpler for the ioncube is really difficult to be patched:)
are you phoenix.talisman?
I had you in the contract~
yes
Yup. My full name contain six words
Use clientadd and clientupdate calls from whmcs action hooks. Replace spaces with _ and you're good to go.
